Kaleb Daark Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Just now, Overread said: Just to note that FW don't do anything any more - GW central does all the rules. It's on them if they don't do anything with the FW models. That said considering that the AOS line has been utterly gutted and about the only thing they've kept are the shared models (Greater demons) and the goblin stuff (which was about the only FW models to actually get any marketing on the community pages when the Gloomspite Gitz book went live); I think that GW just kinda pretends that FW doesn't exist for Age of Sigmar. yup I'd totally agree with that. Its like the khorne dragon. Every week I'm just about to buy the wee fella and then I pull back, I really should treat myself for crimble, as he'll look awesome with the three exalted thirsters I've got - which I may add, I use as regular because plastic leaping kitty thirster is a pile of dog toffee- when they could have just given us a plastic exalted and made us all proud to take skulls. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overread Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 The bonus is you can always run the exalted as just another greater demon since they are basically the same size and base as the regular now. Adds variety to the tabletop when playing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By this reckoning the exalted thirster should be an absolute 1000pt wrecking ball of omigod I just noticed that all Forgeworld Chaos models already got the the full faction keywords (Maggotkin of Nurgle in addition to just Nurgle etc.), that means they will still be able to use all the buffs etc with a new battletome which is good news I think. Still keep my fingers crossed that the Khorne Dragon can get any kind of permanent ward save via Bloodtithe or something like that when a new BT drops 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maogrim Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 1 hour ago, Kaleb Daark said: to fulfill criteria of all centrepiece heroes and so they can say the model is 10cm tall she will obviously be standing on a rock which is actually the top of the pillar that the mountain of bodies (preferably elfs) is piled up against yes? When I saw you quoting me I was more or less certain that it'd be about her not smiling 😂 Well, I guess she'd probably be jumping off of some piece of ruin or rock. If you'd want to add more height you could attach her cape to said rock instead of her legs. So yeah. Dynamic mid-air combat pose. Aweseome. Piles of dead bodies would make thematic sense too, since her partner has those as well. Maybe not Skaven this time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing the plastic thirster needs as an expansion sprue is a tall grass meadow flower base and a straw basket full of bread and cakes for grandma, oh and some mary sue pony tails.

It is utter dog toffee. If that happens I am playing Khorne! I do really like the design of Skarbrand though and if I ran a Bloodthirster that would be my default model. Also I feel Be'lakor makes a good proxy for all Greater Demons to be honest. Edited December 12, 2021 by Neverchosen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nurgle has a garden and Slaanesh has a combine harvester, and a greater combine harvester. Tzeentch is the only chaos god that hasn't got old and decided to get an allotment.

MitGas Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 If it was for Slaaneshi CSM, it would probably have some kind of trim or ornament on such a long, smooth space like the chainsword although they overall shape is gracious enough to fit. I could imagine them to go for some of the swirly detailing the Slaaneshi AoS range got for Emperor‘s Kiddies now. Nurgle and Tzeentch certainly got closer design-wise in the two systems, Khorne was pretty mich always quite similar and I‘m sure Slaanesh will follow that trend now.

Implication and mention is one thing but leaks and rumor states what comming soon is just new units for CSM ( generic undivided units) and their Codex and then after that is supposively it’s world eaters EC will eventually come out but these engines are definitely not related to them 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
